python开发中时长遇到要下载文件的情况,最常用的方法就是通过http利用urllib或者urllib2模块。
当然你也可以利用ftplib从ftp站点下载文件。此外python还提供了另外一种方法requests。
下面来看看三种方法是如何来下载zip文件的:
方法一:
import urllib
import urllib2
import requests
print “downloading with urllib”
url = ‘http://www.pythontab.com/test/demo.zip’
print “downloading with urllib”
urllib.urlretrieve(url, “demo.zip”)
方法二:
import urllib2
print “downloading with urllib2”
url = ‘http://www.pythontab.com/test/demo.zip’
f = urllib2.urlopen(url)
data = f.read()
with open(“demo2.zip”, “wb”) as code:
code.write(data)
方法三:
import requests
print “downloading with requests”
url = ‘http://www.pythontab.com/test/demo.zip’
r = requests.get(url)
with open(“demo3.zip”, “wb”) as code:
code.write(r.content)
看起来使用urllib最为简单,一句语句即可。当然你可以把urllib2缩写成:
f = urllib2.urlopen(url)
with open(“demo2.zip”, “wb”) as code:
code.write(f.read())
